Xenosystems Exploration & Survey / XES

Join the team and unlock your potential

History

Xenosystems Exploration & Survey (XES, colloquially pronounced “excess”) was founded in 2016 by Kal and TheLibrarian.

Impatient for a genre-defining, independent, science-fiction game, they chose to cryogenically freeze their bodies until such times as the UEE was the de facto governing body for humanity amongst the stars. However, a power-cut caused the founders to thaw prematurely in January 2018 and they quickly realised that an organisation of two guys would be ridiculous.

Thus, Xenosystems has been pushing a targeted and aggressive growth campaign with the help of a shiny new website, to develop the organisation into a reasonably sized team of awesome men and women.

We perform the prerequisite checks which enable the discovery and extraction of popular commodity constituents, from intra-planetary and extra-planetary sources, and we will either facilitate the sale of our mineral property assets to our corporate partners, or we will exploit the materials for our own commercial gain.

The founders of the business made their fortunes by investing in a little-known mining venture, based on the knowledge of the RSI Orion’s anticipated arrival, and developed a lead into what was, then, a very stagnant and exclusive industry.

No one was prepared for the explosion of entrepreneurial activity that originated with the commercial release of the Orion, nor did they foresee the profound effect it would have on the economy. Suffice to say, our founders’ initial investment performed rather well.

With the dividends of their success and their burgeoning knowledge of the mining sector, our founders incorporated Xenosystems Exploration & Survey as a cutting-edge industrial organisation, to discover and acquire new mineral deposits for exploitation and resale.

Our goal is to become the premier mineral resource establishment across all sovereign territories. For more information on career opportunities, please click here.

RECRUITMENT

ON A MOREPERSONALNOTE

Real life always comes first. We don’t take ourselves too seriously and when we play, we’re looking to have a good time. That said, we do like to put a little thought and team-work into overcoming the various challenges present in the game. If you’re interested in our list of activities and want to work with a bunch of relaxed (but awesome) people, please feel free to give us a shout.

As a guide, most of our members can be found in Europe and the North America. Anyone around the globe may join us, thrive and have fun.

Looking forward to seeing you in the ‘verse.

Manifesto

We, the star wanderers, the space explorers, declare,

That we recognise our right and duty to shed away from the safety of our harbours,

That we shall not suffer the regret of having lived in the comfort of what is known,

That we shall acquire new knowledge and chart new horizons,

That we are independent and neutral, insofar as our morality and survivability allow us to be,

That any may apply to join, regardless or their planet of origin, to live a life of adventure,

That we shall lead the drive of industry, for the benefit of all.

– The Xenosystems Exploration & Survey Founders
